If I may stick with Dr. Kilgallen at this point, he referred to something very specific, which is the fact that some surgeons only have half a day's access to theatres. That is unbelievable in this day and age. Can he identify the specific reasons for that? Is it inadequate numbers of theatres or numbers of theatre staff? What exactly is causing that incredible logjam in the system?
